Sleeping Dogs PS4 outed by online retailer listing?

Online retailer ‘ShopTo’ has made a habit of prematurely listing videogames that are yet to be announced, and it looks as if it may be at it again having just listed a remastered version of United Front Games’ Sleeping Dogs for release on PlayStation 4.Having leaked games such Minecraft on PS3 and the Ratchet & Clank Trilogy on PS Vita, ShopTo’s listings have gained a degree of validity and it’s not beyond the realm of possibility that Sleeping Dogs – which was a surprise hit on PS3 – could join the long line of games currently receiving a makeover.

The game listing’s description merely recites the game’s story with a tacked-on line detailing the game’s purportedly remastered graphics. Additionally, a release date’s been nailed down for November 21 which seems oddly specific for a placeholder.

Stay tuned to PSU for any confirmation on if Sleeping Dogs is heading to PlayStation 4, and don’t forget to give us your views on the game’s potential arrival.

I downloaded it for free when it was a PSN+ instant game choice, and I'm glad I did. It wasn't brilliant but it was fun and had some good ideas. Might be worth a gamefly rent to see how it improves, but I'd really rather see the sequel that is supposed to be in development.

Yeah I definitely understand people that have played it wanting a sequel. Most of the PS4 enhanced version games that have came out I had little interest in because I already played them.

I absolutely loved this game. Even more so than GTAV. The story, combat system and environmental take downs were awesome. I just wish this announcement was for a sequel is all. Cause I want to play SD2

Sleeping Dogs was one of those games that I enjoyed completing to 100% (including the DLC). Very addicting melee combat and, along with environmental takedowns, throwing any NPC into the trunk of your car, haha.

All the so called "Remastered" versions of last gen video games is just horrendous. I understand if some people haven't got the chance to play some good games from last chance but even so it's better for you to get those games now very cheap instead of paying full price for practically the same game with 5% visual improvement over the original one. People need to stop encouraging Game Companies from doing this bull$#@!, we need new games with new gameplay mechanics. not a 3 years old game republished.

The amount of games that are getting remastered right now is startling. I'm honestly chalking it up to the fact that they likely got new games coming down the road that aren't going to be out for a decent while so they are trying to tide over with this. This is literally the only remaster that I'm looking forward to. When GTA 5 was shown at the Sony conference I didn't even bat an eye. I've been there played it and moved on. Much like all the other remastered titles.

No doubt it's a great game but $#@! off with the remasters. Buy last gen consoles if you want the game or wait for PS Now. It's getting ridiculous. I can partly understand exclusives for non sony owners from last gen but cross plats (this, GTA, Metro, TR to name afew) are not why I bought a new console to play last gen games on.

That's my stance on these remasters anyway, other opinions may differ which is fair enough, every one has their reasons but I haven't bought any and won't be buying any in the future neither.

I'm not bothered by this kind of stuff as it'll give people who didn't first buy the game as chance to experience it in a better from, and also anyone who loved the game enough to get it again. I know there's a couple of games I wouldn't mind with some 'next-gen' polish.

Personally though I couldn't get into this game. It felt like a weak man's GTA.

I'd imagine that it is only a minority of the team that works on these titles from their respective studios, most likely the art team so I'm not sure how much of burden it is to new projects and so on.

I also have nothing against the price tags as I don't think these remasters are to get people double dipping but rather offering people who never got round to them the chance to play some of last gens best games with an HD make over. GTAV, Sleeping Dogs, Tomb Raider...I never played these games and so for me to lay down €50 for a definitive cversion is not really a cash crab IMO but rather a really cool opportunity to play the definitive version of the game.
